My group of 3 friends ordered many many different types of skewers along with 3 entrees, the sweet chewy fried pork (guo bao rou), stir fried eggplant and egg fried rice. Among the ones I tried the best skewers were the original lamb, special beef and beef tendon. These were super juicy and larger than the other skewers. These eggplants were also seasoned perfectly and the guo bao rou was perfectly chewy and crispy too. Note that the entrees are huuge so beware if you want to fit in more skewers! I absolutely loved this place (byob for beer/wine helps) and I would definitely come back!

Anytime I go to a korean/chinese restaurant I always get the jajangmyeon (noodle with brown sauce) and either the kkanpunggi (fried chicken with garlic sauce) or tangsuyuk (sweet and sour beef/pork). Last time I went I got my usual, jajangmyeon which was solid, just enough sauce to finish off with noodles. And got the kkanpunggi, which was very crispy and delicious. Consistently have good experience and service here. If you're in the mood for Korean/Chinese food, I highly recommend this place. * Offer hot tea or ice water * Parking in back or meter parking * Half jajangmyeon, half jjamppong dish not available * Always get sauce on the side when ordering tangsuyuk (In general, not just here)

A small skewer Yakitori place in Palisades Park on Columbia Avenue…read more Apparently it is not Japanese but Chinese lamb yakitori skewer place, famous for lamb. We ordered 30 skewers of lamb, 5 chicken, 5 beef, cucumber salad, sweet & sour fried pork, and 5 bacon & enoki mushrooms. The beef was too chewy. Chicken was alright. And lamb was the best !!!! Right texture and enough fat to satisfy your palate. With the charcoal burning right at your table, it can be quite u comfortable with the heat and smoke. But if you are craving some variety of skewers, this is the place.

There's Korean food, Chinese food, and then there's Korean-Chinese food. This particular sub-genre…read moreis close to my heart, and whenever I asked friends and acquaintances about where I could find a decent bowl of those unctuous, slippery black bean noodles (called jjajangmyun), most listed Hong Ban Jang close to the tops of their lists. The jjajangmyun here are great. It's a hearty serving and a rich sauce with bits of vegetables and pork. Don't get confused when they plop a scissor next to your bowl - it's to cut the noodles down to size so they're easier to eat. At most Chinese-Korean restaurants, they've smartened up to the power of a mix-and-match menu. Hong Ban Jang has quite a few on the menu, noted in fun Korean portmanteaus like bokjjangmyun (half fried rice, half black bean noodles) or tang jjang myun (half sweet and sour fried pork, half noodles). These are served in clever divided bowls and a good way to get a good portion of two hits. Speaking of hits, my family and I tried two - the aforementioned tang soo yuk, or sweet and sour fried pork, is incredible here. Hot, crispy, and big chunks of meat (as opposed to other restaurants which shall not be named, who have shaved costs by deep frying paper thin bits of pork). It's served with a sweet sauce that has chunks of fruits (peaches? pineapples? We couldn't decide which, but it was delicious). Good as these were, I loved the lajogi even more. These are translated 'stir-fried chicken in hot sauce' on the menu, and they're deep fried nuggets of chicken, covered in a zingy, pepper-studded spicy sauce. My family and I came on a late Saturday lunch hour and things were hopping in here. Every table was full and there was a bit of a wait (admittedly, we were also a larger party so it took some time to mash tables together). The servers know how to keep up with such rush; even when there seems to be way more tables and customers than staff, they're somehow always there when you need something.

Went to Rahongbu Malatang for some dry pot on a weeknight for dinner. It's in the same restaurant…read moreas Hong Chun Cheon, which serves dakgalbi. The dry pot here is similar to others, where you serve yourself from a raw bar, the ingredients are weighed, and they cook it for you to the spice level of your liking. I don't like that noodles are charged separately from the weight of the other ingredients (vegetables, fish cakes, meat, etc.) Because of this, i almost opted to order one of the dakgalbi dishes on the menu for Hong Chun Cheon. However, the prices listed on the menu are for one serving. When i tried to order, the lady at the counter explained I had to order two order minimum. So the real price for one order of cheese dakgalbi is $51.90, not $25.95. This was annoying because I was the only person who wanted dakgalbi, which mean i ended up not getting it. I did get my dry pot though. They make it spicy just like everyone else. At about $16 per pound with separate charges for noodles, it's slightly more expensive than other dry pot restaurants in the area. I eventually wanna come back for the dakgalbi, but I'm gonna need to make sure i have a partner beforehand.

Upon getting a table, you can order either the mala options or the chicken bbq (닭갈비) options. If…read moreyou're getting mala, you can self-serve any ingredients you'd like - malatang was cheaper ($14.95/lb) than the dry pot version ($16.95/lb). There aren't too many options but still ample to make a delicious mala dish. I got the Malatang with the Medium level which was the best for me, although I was sniffling a bit towards the end. I think Mild is also a great option, as it was still flavorful with a slight heat. We had a bit of a wait on Friday night as expected but luckily, upon being seated it's just a matter of waiting for the kitchen to prepare your dish. They offered us complimentary sweet potato tempura on the house which helped curb our hunger in the meantime. There are only three people working front of house so please be patient!

I have been raving about this place to my family for a long time, so I brought them here expecting the same great food I've had before. Unfortunately, the food tasted completely different today. The noodles were overcooked, and the jjampong did not have the usual smoky wok flavor. It was bland and missing that deep "bul-mat" flavor that makes jjampong good. The tangsuyuk was also disappointing. The individual pieces were unusually huge, as if they were not cut into the smaller, bite-sized pieces like usual. We ended up eating less than half of the food. Even the kkakdugi seemed off. The color was dark, and it tasted foul, which made the meal even more unpleasant. I've been here multiple times, and today's food tasted like the chef had changed. I asked whether the chef-owner was not there today, and the waitress confirmed that he was not. I really hope this was just an off day, because this place used to be consistently good.

The dining room was empty when we rocked up on a weekday late afternoon, and it was nice to sit at a table by the window for a street view. The staff was quick and efficient, and we got a super heavy tea pot of hot barley tea in no time. Food came out without delay. I love how theirs comes with loads of veggies, even as I question the use of green beans which is a first for me (to see them in sweet and sour pork). And while it was distracting and would rather have the dish without the beans, the star of the fish, the pork, was just right and we gobbled it up. I hope they stay open for a long time.
